Its that time of year again!! Everyone is thawing out their turkeys, mixing up the stuffing and planning their strategy for their Black Friday Shopping! I have to say I am a chicken, I never go out on Black Friday. I don't function very well early in the morning and I'm not a big huge fan of crowds. I would rather pay a little more than go thru all of that! BUT with that being said, I DO LOVE shopping from home! If I could grocery shop and have them delivered to my house I would! I used to be a natural born shopper but now, I would rather surf thru the net and have it delivered!!!

So here is where this store wide sale comes in!!! You don't have to get up early, there is no pushing, no shoving, I don't even care if you wear your jammies!! You can shop any time from now until Monday Dec 1 (cyber monday!) and get 40% OFF almost everything in my store! (Of course new releases are excluded!)

I am having a GREAT time at Mischief Circus!! I have ALWAYS wanted to be a part of that store...from back when it was Deviant Scrap so the newness hasn't worn off and I have been working really hard to put out new things just to prove to myself that I can do this!!

I had scanned a bunch of things out of some great old magazines from 1922 that I am just in love with, extracted them and applied some funky textures and filters to make them a bit different. Half way thru the kit I found I was singing "4 and 20 black birds baked in a pie..." while I was creating so I brought that into the kit as well. I ended up being so happy with the way the kit turned out! That and the kit itself is HUGE!!! There is word art, word tags, ATC backgrounds, 70 accents 18 papers, I just couldn't seem to stop myself! :-) Anyway right now if you buy the individual pieces they are 20% OFF BUT if you buy the GET IT ALL KIT you will save 35% so it really is the best deal to get the whole kit and kaboodle!!

This kit is a holiday kit with pinups!!! ( Please check if you are a GDS shopper, I did release this last holiday season but I have added to it and created ATC backgrounds to go with it) This kit is 20% OFF along with all the individual packs but if you purchase the GET IT ALL KIT you get 30% OFF so its a great way to save money!!!

The wonderful thing about being a part of the digi-scrap community is the way we come together from all over the world to raise money for a cause, a catastrophe or a friend in need.

This time we come together for one of our own.

Melissa Melanson-Dawes (aka LissyKay Designs) just underwent her 14th spine operation and now has to face yet another operation. She has had to take her 3rd leave of absence from work and will have to stay on bed rest following this next operation through the end of the year. With all the medical bills and cost of living, the family is not in a financial position to do this, but has no choice as Melissa's spine damage has worsened to the point that she was losing the ability to walk.

Still recovering from the last round of surgeries, the family now finds themselves in an even worse position than before. Melissa still needs more treatment and the family is facing losing their small condo due to their finances being drained. We hope that you will join in and help the Dawes family during their time of need so that Melissa can continue to receive the life-saving care she requires. They have kept the drastic nature of their situation quite private, but it is at a point they stand to lose what little they have and this will impact the further care Melissa needs.

Many know Melissa has struggled for years, but most don't know this all started when she was in a car accident as a teenager. Her husband, Alan, works 2 jobs but this barely touches the debt they have had to take on for Melissa's medical treatment. Doctors believe they finally have a solution to prolong Melissa's physical abilities and with all things going right, she will be able to work for a few more years. The doctor does not expect her to have many years left of employment and she will have to take a permanent disability.

Many thanks to the 22 amazing designers have come together to help raise money for this wonderful family:
